5.3.1 Solo Mode

The three Solo modes can be selected by pressing their respective switches in the Solo

Control Panel. Selecting one mode deselects the previous mode.

APL (After-Pan Listen): Signal is post-fader and pan (stereo)

PFL (Pre-Fader Listen): Signal is pre-fader in mono

SIP (Solo-In-Place): Allows soloed channels through to the main busses. Mutes all chan-

nels not soloed but not channels designated as Solo-Safe (page 69). This mode allows

monitoring soloed channels with panning and effects if the effects returns have been

designated Solo-Safe. We do not recommend this destructive solo mode for live broad-

cast or for recording a mix or dub.
